September 15, 2025,Von St. Michael Runde über Katschberg

A beautiful route.
There is, however, a section (about 2 km before the Pritzhütte) that is very steep uphill with some large, loose rocks.
We pushed.
This section will be about 200 meters long.
But otherwise, almost all of it is forest road, and of course, asphalt on the Katschberghöhe.

With Sylvie and Lefki, a full program. Better drive clockwise then you don't have to push at the Doktoralm🤣

Panoramic tour from Murtal over the heights of Katschberg. Some interesting uphill trails (Trail Doktoralm), as well as beautiful downhill trails into the Leißnitztal on this eventful round.
